Würzburg restaurants feature hearty and down-to-earth Franconian specialties like "Blaue Zipfel", sausages simmered in a sweet-and-sour broth; "Gerupfter", camembert cheese blended with onions and spices and served on dark bread; and "Meefischli", a deep-fried, finger-sized fish eaten whole.

Good regional food in typical local restaurants is offered at "Backöfele", "Zum Stachel", Juliusspital, or Bürgerspital.
